Vulnerability Data
Shenzhen Tenda AC7 firmware version V03.03.03.01_cn and prior expose sensitive information in web management responses. Administrative credentials, including the router and/or admin panel password, are included in plaintext within configuration response bodies. In addition, responses lack appropriate Cache-Control directives, which…

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Directly enforces policy-based information flow rules that block transmission of sensitive data to unauthorized actors.
Enforces authorizations on logical access so that sensitive data is not released to unauthorized recipients.
Requires validation of outbound information to ensure sensitive content is not disclosed in responses or messages.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Secure SDLC practices directly prevent insertion of sensitive data into application outputs and messages.
Monitoring runtime data flows and outputs can detect sensitive data being transmitted.
Protecting data-in-transit can include filtering or encrypting to avoid exposing sensitive content.
Protecting data-in-use includes removing confidential values before they are processed or sent.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Data-masking techniques can prevent sensitive values from appearing in transmitted payloads.
Classification identifies sensitive data so it is not inadvertently transmitted.
Labelling makes sensitive data visible to developers and prevents accidental inclusion in outbound messages.
Information-transfer rules directly govern what data may be sent to external parties.
PII-protection requirements reduce the chance of sending personal data to unauthorized recipients.
DLP controls inspect and block outbound flows that contain sensitive information.
